As such, you have not, and any subsequent rulings for or against the inclusion or validity of specific "modes of transport" are null as you are just making things up in a purely subjective and arbitrary manner, without ANY justification or reasoning whatsoever.

I suggest scrapping this abortion of a thread and starting again, this time defining CLEARLY what you mean by "mode of transport" and including a comprehensive list of exclusions along with justification for said exclusion, along with allowing a period of consultation for any potentially controversial rulings (such as thewarn's arse) to be discussed at length.

Otherwise it's just not much fun.

Also, all of the listed forms of transport are valid as all moved me physically from one place (which we shall refer to as point a) to another (which we shall refer to as point b).
